WHAT TRUE MERIT WILL Do.--The un-
precedented sale of Boschee's German
Syrup within p few years, has astonished
the world. 1t is without doubt the safest
and best remedy ever discovered for the
speedy and effectual cure of coughs, colds
and the severest lung troubles. 1t acts on
an entirely different principle from the
usual prescriptions gwen by Physicians,
as it does not dry up cough and leave the
disease still in the system, but on the con-
trary removes the cause of the trouble,
heals the parts affected and leaves them in
a purely healthy condition. A bottle kept
in the house for use when the diseases
make their appearance, will save doctors
bills and long spell of serious illness. A
trial will convince you of the facts. 1t is
positively sold by all druggists and general
dealers in the land. Price, Is cts, large
bottles. jan 2SlyS7eow.

The suit of Joseph Hess executor against
Frank Hess brought large number OF
persons to town as witnesses last week and
occupied three days Of the court. 1t was
a suit brought to recover land in Jackson
occupied by the defendant, and his defense
was that the land was given to him by his
father, whose representatives sough. to
eject him from 1t by this suit. After hear
ing the testimony and the argument of
counsel, Judge Green directed the jury to
render verdict for the plaintiff, with six
cents costs, and six cents damages, on the
ground that the parol evidence was not
sufficient TO establish u title in the defend
ant. In this case it is a great hardship for
Frank Hess, who has put considerable
money into the property. supposlng it was
his but the rule Of law that a contract for
the sale of land must be in writing, is IT,
flexible. The moral is that when one be-
comes possessed of land, either by gift or
purchase, he should be sure that his title is
all right before he puts improvements on it.

A Hazleton paper says: THE Tide
Water Pipe Line, which is supposed to be
an attribute of the Standard Oil Company,
several years ago built line from the oil
regions to Tamanend, near Tamaqua, on
the Philadelphia Il Reading railroad, where
thousands of cars have been loaded with
the crude material and taken to New York
and Philadelphia retiners. The Iamane nd
station will be abolished shortly as the COM
pany is now extending its pipe line from
the latter named place to tide water. The
route ext, nds over the Broad Mountain to
Mauch Chunk where it crosses TO the North
Branch of the Lehigh river along which it
runs to the Delaware river at Easton, from
which place "Y's" will go in the direction
of New York and Philadelphia. There
will be steam pumps placed at intervals of
fifteen miles apart to assist in giving press
ure to the oil. The undertaking is an i'm
mense affair, costing about $500,00O.
Large gangs Of pipe filters numbering in
all about 200 men, are employed along the
line. The lahorers receive So per day and
board The pipes used are five incnes in
diameter and dragged up the mountain
sleeps by teams of horses. 1t is expected
that the entire contract will be completed
early next summer.

GALVESTON, TEX, June 13.-About

rents. During the night the gale shifted
from north TO southeast ana increased
its fury until at 8 O'Clock this morning it

ing as night set in. Ate O'CLOCK Tonight
the rainfall for the pastrwenty-fo hours
measures 4 90 inches. Early This morning
when the gale was at its maXmuGi
the waters III the cay were quite nigh and
some fears were entertained by those
living along the bay front of another
overflow, but as the day progressed the
WIND subsidized and only the ordinary
breeze is blowing tonight. Considerable
damage was done to the railroad being
built into the Gulf from the foot of
Avenue by A. NJ. Shannon & Co., for
the purpose of delivering material for the
jetty. All of the stringers were washed
of the piling, but IS they were bolted to-
gether they were secured without much
trouble this morning and made fast with
ropes. Colonel Shannon thinks the damage
will DE considerably less than $1,000, and
that the material Will be back in place in
a couple of days. No other damage Is
beyond the washing away of
few sidewalks and fences in the lower
part of the city. At 1880 tonight the
rains continue falling.

ninety emigrants from Ireland who
came here in the s:eamar City of Chester
came up. The emigrants have been sent
here by the British government, which
paid their passage. Their admission was
eobjected to on the ground that they

they would not be permitted to land IN
